What the petition asks
The EU have publicly stated there will be a cost to exit the EU, to enable a fair settlement of financial matters which will be discussed in detail, key to those talks must be publishing the accounts of the EU which has not been forthcoming.
Now that Article 50 has been triggered, MPs should demand that the British Government view the accounts that the EU has consistently failed to publish, transparency of accounts should now feature high on the Brexit negotiations, in view of EU talks of exit fees.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We are not sure what you are asking the Government to do. The EU already publishes annual accounts. You can find out more here:
